Hone your communication skills

Here are a few tips I've learned to hone in my writing skills and have helped me become a better and more effective writer. And it's helped me become a better communicator

1 -- Get an AP style book and continue to learn grammer and punctuation.
2 -- Expand your volcabulary. I'm on two "word of the day" email lists.
3 -- Listen. Two facts: american like to speak more than listen. And 7% of communication is through the words you use, 38% is through your tone and grammer and the remaining 55% is through non verbal communication.
4 -- Research. Process information quickly and effectively, channeling your thoughts.
5 -- Think: critically and analyitically, and find creative solutions to problems.

Honing in the above skills will assist you to become a more effective communicator, both verbal and non-verbal.

Wouldn't you agree that a good writer should proofread. Check #2, there is a misspelling and it doesn't make sense. Good thing I find your arrogance attractive.
